A: A sign of our strong commitment is that we are
your moving partner, not just your moving company. This is
evident from the way we approach each Birmingham move we handle.

A McCorquodale specialist does a walk-through at
your home or office to help you plan your move. You will then be
assigned a move coordinator, who will work with you to make every
phase of your relocation, from packing to settling in, go as
smoothly as planned.

Once you have selected McCorquodale as your
Birmingham moving or storage partner, you will receive a Pre-Move
Information Letter which outlines and confirms your schedule and
provides you with pre-move recommendations and tips. While you are
preparing for your move, any time of the day or night, you can
contact your move coordinator with your questions.

A: Pricing for different Birmingham movers is
essentially based on Intra-State and Inter-State moving.

Intra-State Moving
Alabama’s Public Service Commission regulates Alabama’s Intra-State
household moving. The commission publishes a common rate Tariff.
This tariff outlines all services and charges and holds all movers
within our state responsible for abiding by their set rates,
procedures, and policies as set forth by the commission.

This means that if your move does not cross a state
line but is greater than 30 miles (less than 30 miles is a Local
Move) the move is considered an Intra-State move. All movers must,
by law, use the same rates. This means that service is the only
important factor in choosing a mover.

Inter-State Moving
Inter-State moves are moves across state lines. From state to state
and across the country, we relocate your one item or entire
household with the same integrity and quality as a local move. We
understand the natural stress of a move, and take the job of
managing your state to state move and the movement of your valuable
property seriously.

Our record for cross country moves anywhere in the
U.S. is another example of our ability to meet any moving challenge.
Although we have many competitors, we understand what it takes to
earn your business. Our commitment is to be the leader in
Inter-State moves with pricing that competes with other Birmingham
movers.

My husband & I recently used Sidney McLaurin in Jackson on two
different occasions, one local and one to AR & we have been
extremely impressed by his outstanding service. He is so
conscientious polite, detailed, strong, indefatigable, and
pleasant. The crews he has assembled are also exceptional. We
are very appreciative and wanted to commend him and his
leadership to you. He was recommended to us by someone who said,
“everyone in Jackson who has something fragile or valuable to
move would only use Sidney.” We now will also spread the good
word.
